hmm? although seeing the song performed live is epic, I don't think there is anything inferior about the recorded version. then again I've never heard a live recording, I've only heard it live when I've been at their shows.

The distortion is so much more powerful live. You get more of a sense of the volume.

Re: Mogwai is My Friend

Mogwai and Massive Attack did overlap, I had to miss Mogwai because I was camping out through Massive Attack for Tool. Massive Attack were amazing. It's tough to say which I'd pick even if I wasn't camping out for Tool. Mogwai is amazing and one of my favorite bands, but so is Massive Attack. Mogwai got screwed.

Re: Mogwai is My Friend

They are also finishing off their new album, so it is pretty unlikely we will see them any time before the summer. They are playing a European festival in mid-June I believe, so we probably are looking at July/August at the earliest.

Oh man! I hope this goes over so well they take this to the States.

Mogwai Young Team - Live

Afternoon, a special announcement of sorts. We're going to be doing a exclusive performance of the 'Mogwai Young Team' record live in its entirety at this year's Summercase in July. For more information about the festival you can visit their website here.

Oh, and new album is just about done!

Good day. We are almost finished mixing our howling hawk of a new record and we're so pleased with it that we might never release it and instead just put it on our own iPod shuffles and walk the streets of Glasgow, never speaking, Syd-Barrett-style forever.

It's got it all, dreamy ballads about forbidden love gone awry, one minute pointless instrumentals and even some spoken word about the future of the music industry in India. If and when you allow yourself to hear these bitching jams you're going to want to buy some seriously good crystal meth just to take the edge off.

You know how Radiohead let their album be downloaded for free? Well, our very own John Cummings had his own method of doing this when he left his new mogwai-new-album-containing laptop in Nice n Sleazies by accident the other night. Don't worry, it's all fine.
